alt Hacker NewsYet high noon at my current location comes at 12:03 (1:03 with DST). It's three minutes off. If I lived further west in my timezone, noon would come much later.
How can people manage with noon off by minutes, yet want leap-second accuracy every 6 months?
More like every 2 years.
But yes, point taken.
The counterpoint is that it costs little.
